Oof trying this just to try to learn Malbec if I were to get it in a blind tasting. I’d maybe confuse it with a new world Merlot. Advice from other blind tasting study-hounds? I sincerely will keep tasting Malbecs of all levels until I get a hang on this. Anyway what I get is some ripe, some stewed and some dried black and blue (cherries, blackberries blueberries) fruit and some vanilla and I just don’t know what would tell my tongue this was Malbec not, say a Merlot or new world hybrid tasty blend...I’d be a fail at the court masters...oh what am I to do? Oh drink oops got it. I shall keep sipping.

Tart up front, and on the quick finish, with a sweet red fruit linger. It's like how I remember gushers fruit snacks being. Or like I ate a red fruit roll up. SO: likes. Would drink again. Maybe not quite the new "table red", but good.
